about

The title is inspired by the profound insights of Irving Yalom's book, and the song is about the haunting (and familiar) tale of someone wrestling with their fear of commitment, continually finding themselves extinguishing the flames of love before it can fully ignite, examining the enigmatic struggle with a deceptive inner voice — the relentless whisper insisting they are unworthy of happiness and love.

lyrics

Ooh, here we go again / another love's end
and you break not to bend
I know you felt it wrong / but it can fool you
it's gone on too long

if you wanted / you could stop it
if you wanted / you could stop it

and you know that voice inside / it's love's executioner
tells you that you are wasting your time / it's love's executioner
don't deserve to be happy in life / it's love's executioner
and its words have invaded your mind
but love's executioner lies

if you could let love lead / dare courageously
who knows what could be
I know you're scared by this / I know you feel it
nothing comes without risk

if you wanted / you could stop it
if you wanted / you could stop it

and you know that voice inside / it's love's executioner
tells you that you are wasting your time / it's love's executioner
don't deserve to be happy in life / it's love's executioner
and its words have invade your mind
but love's executioner lies
